Apple on Friday supplied developers with yet another beta build of Mac OS X 10.7.2 as it moves closer to releasing the update for Lion with support for iCloud integration.



The latest build is dubbed 11C57 and it is about a 740MB download in its delta form, according to people familiar with the software. The latest build is said to have no known issues.



As with the previous build released on Sunday, the latest version is said to include iCloud in the installer. Previously, developers had to download and install iCloud separately for testing.



Apple also began transitioning user accounts from MobileMe to iCloud this past weekend. That allows developers to transfer mail, contacts and calendars to the new iCloud.com site.



Also like the earlier build, the focus areas Apple has asked developers to concentrate on in Friday's latest update reportedly include the new iCloud, as well as Address Book, iCal, Mail, MobileMe, and Safari.



This fall's launch of iCloud will come with the Lion update, as well as a new version of iTunes. Beta release of the new iTunes 10.5 have also been supplied to developers for testing, along with pre-release versions of iWork for iOS.

    No doubt all the screen shots from a dev will appear soon as he /she forgets the NDA.

    It's not there for me either. All 10.7.2 links are still for 11C55.

    If you can't find the download you're looking for on the main banner page maybe there is another way to access all downloads for Mac OS X...



    Just a guess though.

    Will iCloud be rolled out before iOS5 or iOS5 first then iCloud or will it be simultaneous?



    Just curious,

    iCloud will probably go live shortly before the Golden Master version of iOS 5 is released. It really makes little sense for Apple to release iOS 5 before a major part of the release's functionality is ready. Apple has complete control over the timeline.

    So did you find it?



    If not, scroll down on the Mac Dev Center page, find the All Downloads link, then choose Mac OS X (or Server as needed).



    You'll find it there *always* no matter what your account banner page shows, probably roll it out so not everyone hits it at the same time.
